Ker & Downey Africa is a luxury destination management company that crafts tailor-made safaris and high-end travel across Southern Africa, East Africa, and the Indian Ocean islands, including Mauritius and Seychelles. Born from Jeffrey Squire’s passion for Africa in the late 1970s and later developed through Thebe Tourism Group, the company evolved into a leading independent DMC. It serves boutique travel agencies and tour operators worldwide through dedicated regional divisions. The recent integration of Grand Africa Safaris into the North America division strengthened multi-country expertise and consolidated one-point-of-contact service for complex itineraries.
Ker & Downey Africa offers white‑label itineraries, 24/7 on‑ground support, exclusive lodge access, competitive rates, and an Agent Portal providing live availability and RACK rates. The company emphasizes cultural nuance and personalized service, delivering multi‑country safaris and signature LuxVenture® experiences for high‑net‑worth clients. Recognized by the World Travel Awards as Africa’s Leading Destination Management Company, it has also launched a Safari Planner tool to streamline bespoke trip planning.
